Abstract

In the new knowledge based economy, knowledge is the main strategic resource of the company, organizational learning is the main strategic instrument and in this context success depends on the culture that reaches into the knowledge based organization. Knowledge-based economy requires both in Romania and internationally, the presence of intelligent organizations, with advanced management capabilities of their collective skills, as sources of performance. Organizational learning is inevitable, arising from systemic complexity that goes beyond the rigid hierarchies and traditional practices and entails the emergence of non-hierarchical organizational structures. This is the context that leads us to the conclusion that learning processes should: • Become more and more anticipatory and participatory; • Ensure the transition from specialist to generalist; • Focus on innovative learning; • Ensure the autonomy of the individual (as a key element of personal fulfilment) and its organic integration into society (as a key element of human relations). For Romania, the imbalance between the potential of the intangible assets of the organizations and the level of their exploitation has, as main generating reasons, the following: • The insufficient use of the innovation capacity; • The insufficient use of human capital relative to its formation process, with significant implications in the international migration; • The existence of disadvantaged areas and of knowledge disparities between various regions of the country and between rural and urban; • The discrepancies between highly qualified staff and the degree of physical and moral wear of some infrastructures.
